I want my YouTubeTV. From NYT Tech:
This fall, YouTube says it will introduce a radically different, uncluttered look, with YouTube Leanback. It will have a separate Web address and will start playing a video the moment a user clicks on the site. When one video ends, another will start automatically, eliminating those dreaded “decision points” that invite abandonment. Viewers will be able to select channels, but the flow of programs, whether short or long, will be continuous.
“There’s no browsing, no searching, no clicking. It behaves like you would expect television to,” said Hunter Walk, a YouTube program manager who provided a brief peek this month at Google’s developer conference.
I never 'surf' YouTube. I find what I need, usually a movie trailer, get the embed code, close the YouTube tab in my browser, and stick the video on my blog.
Surfing the site yields too much offensive and/or stupid junk. From year(s)-old movie trailers to soft coed porn to animals being cute to the latest video of a drunk celeb falling down outside a club. I don't have time. I hit and run.
If YouTube Leanback can put together the right content I might spend a few minutes watching. Read: if they put together a channel with the latest movie trailers and movie news clips, etc...
